by Life as a couple can be both challenging and enjoyable. A recent global survey, Love satisfaction from life, shows that 60% of Brazilians are satisfied with love and sex. In addition to being significant, the index is close to the global satisfaction rate of 63%
The research, designed for Valentine’s Day, was conducted by the Ipsos company, specialized in market research. About 22,500 people from 32 countries, aged between 16 and 74, took part in the survey. Of this total, one thousand were Brazilian.
The study was conducted between December 2022 and January 2023, through online platforms. In addition to being asked about their love and sex lives, the volunteers answered how much they felt loved and satisfied by their partners or spouses.
When it comes to sex life, six out of 10 Brazilians said they were satisfied. But the country ranks 22nd overall. China was in first place, with 79%, followed by Indonesia and Thailand, both with 75% of people happy with their sex routine.
The most dissatisfied were the Japanese, with only 34% saying they were doing well with their sex life. South Koreans (44%) and Swedes (55%) are still in the last places.
